The most useful thing we can all do to help prevent the spread of this virus is to follow basic health precautions. This includes washing your hands often and using a tissue when you cough or sneeze.
If you are an NDIS participant and you are concerned about your exposure to COVID-19, the Department of Health has a specific hotline to respond to your enquiries. 1800 020 080 (24 hours a day, seven days a week). If you are deaf or have a hearing or speech impairment, you can use the National Relay Service to access any of the department’s listed phone numbers.
You can visit the National Relay Service website or call 1300 555 727. If you need translation and/or interpretation support, Translating and Interpreting Services are offered by the Australian Government on the Department of Home Affairs website. You can read more about COVID-19 at the NDIS Website.
